Common AC Problems We Fix

Not cooling at all — usually a failed run capacitor, low refrigerant, or badly fouled condenser coils. AC running constantly but not reaching your set temperature — often a refrigerant leak, an oversized unit that short-cycles, or duct leaks bleeding conditioned air into unconditioned spaces. AC won't turn on — typically a failed capacitor, bad contactor, or thermostat wiring issue. Refrigerant leaks require an EPA-certified technician — our techs are certified. Frozen evaporator coil — caused by restricted airflow (dirty filter or coil) or low refrigerant. Loud grinding, rattling, or squealing noises — signs of a failing blower motor or debris in the outdoor unit. We diagnose before quoting and quote before working.

AC Tune-Up vs. Repair — Know the Difference

If your AC is running but struggling — not cooling as well as it used to, running longer than normal, or leaving the house humid — a tune-up is often the right first step. A tune-up includes cleaning the evaporator and condenser coils, checking refrigerant charge, testing capacitors, and inspecting electrical connections. Cost is $89–$149 and it frequently restores full performance. If a component has actually failed — capacitor burned out, contactor pitted, motor seized — that's a repair, priced separately at $150–$500 depending on the part. We always diagnose first, give you a written quote, and wait for your approval before replacing anything.

AC Replacement in Livonia

AC units over 15 years old — especially those still running R-22 refrigerant, which was federally phased out and is now extremely expensive when available — should be budgeted for replacement rather than repair. New 16+ SEER2 units run $3,500–$6,000 installed in the Livonia market, including labor, equipment, and any electrical upgrades needed. Michigan summers are shorter than southern climates but they're genuinely humid, and a properly sized, modern unit makes a measurable comfort difference — not just on the hottest days but throughout the whole cooling season. DTE Energy and Consumers Energy both offer rebates for qualifying high-efficiency replacements; we identify applicable rebates at the estimate.
